SERVICE CHART
1. Perform engine oil change after first 5 hours of use
and then at recommended intervals. Change
engine oil every 25 hours when used under heavy
load or in high ambient temperatures.
2. Service more frequently when used in dusty areas.
3. Air filter element may require replacement earlier
in dusty areas. A dirty air filter reduces engine
performance.
4. Unit should be serviced by authorised dealer
unless owner has proper tools and is mechanically
proficient and experienced in the repair of
waterblasters
PROTECTING THE PUMP
To protect the pump from damage caused by
mineral deposits or freezing, use PumpSaver to
treat pump. This prevents freeze damage and
lubricates pistons and seals.
NOTE: PumpSaver is available as an optional
accessory.
CAUTION! You must protect your unit
from freezing temperatures. Failure to do
so will permanently damage your pump and
render your unit inoperable. Freeze damage
is not covered under warranty.
To use PumpSaver, make sure the pressure
washer is turned off and disconnected from supply
water. Read and follow all instructions and
warnings given on the PumpSaver container.
NOTE: PumpSaver will drip from pump after
treatment and will stain wood and concrete.
CAUTION! Read and follow all cautions
and warnings on the PumpSaver label.
Always wear eye protection when using
PumpSaver.
NOTE: If PumpSaver is not available, draw RV
the solution into a 1 metre of garden hose
connected to inlet adapter and pulling recoil handle
twice.
STORAGE
Water shouldn’t remain in unit for long periods of
time. Sediments or minerals can deposit on pump
parts and ‘freeze’ pump action.
If you do not plan to use the pressure washer for
more than 30 days, follow this procedure:
1. Flush detergent siphoning tube by placing filter
into a pail of clean water while running pressure
washer in low pressure mode. Flush for one to
two minutes.
2. Shut off engine and let it cool, then remove high
pressure and garden hoses. Disconnect spark
plug wire from spark plug.
3. Empty pump of liquids by pulling engine recoil
handle about 6 times. This should remove most
liquid in pump.
4. Use pump saver to prevent corrosion build up
and freezing of pump.
5. Store unit in a clean, dry area.
